Long Forgotten

Scattered, misplaced, ruined-

The words hardly did justice

To the sight that caught her eyes

And stopped the breath of her lungs.

‘What happened here!’, she was aghast,

Not knowing if she could handle

Finding the truth of her existence

After years of searching in vain.

Strewn across the floor, were proofs

That could lead her to the end of the tunnel;

Picking them one by one, she wiped her tears

Vowing to bring alive the history long forgotten.
